  • Nine templates in Docs, Notion and plain Markdown
  • A rate card structure that survives negotiation
  • Free updates for life — currently on v4.2
  • Used by 1,410 studios since 2023

Reviews

1,410 studios, 4.9 average.

The contract library paid for itself on the first project. I stopped rewriting the same kill-fee paragraph and started sending it.
Henrik Vasquez Motion studio · Bought the Contract Library
I bought the Pricing Workbook expecting a PDF of platitudes. It is a spreadsheet with a hard conversation in it. My rates went up 40%.
Lars Brandt Bookbinder · Bought the Pricing Workbook
Version 4.2 landed in my inbox eighteen months after I paid. Free updates for life turned out to mean it.
Obi Nwosu Independent developer · Bought the Operating Kit
The grids are the only Figma file I have ever bought twice, because I gave the first license to a collaborator and needed another.
Kenji Tanaka Print studio · Bought Editorial Grid Presets

New products, occasionally

Six or seven emails a year. That is the whole promise.

New releases, free updates worth knowing about, and the two sales we run.

No sequences, no drip campaign, no re-engagement email.

Buying and downloading

How the shop works.

What happens after I pay?

The download link is on the confirmation page and in your email within a minute. Links do not expire, and your account page lists every file you have ever bought.

What does 'free updates for life' mean?

Exactly that. When a product gets a new version you get an email with the new download. The Studio Operating Kit has shipped four major versions since 2023 and every buyer has all of them.

Can I use these for client work?

Yes. One purchase covers you and your clients for unlimited projects. What it does not cover is redistributing the file itself, or reselling it as your own product.

Do you offer refunds?

Thirty days, no questions. Reply to the receipt and it is done the same day. We do not ask you to delete the files.

What formats do I get?

Every product lists its formats on its page. Templates ship as Docs, Notion and Markdown; presets as XMP or Figma; type as OTF and WOFF2.

Is there a team license?

For teams over five, email us. It is a flat multiple, not a per-seat subscription.
